Structures of Lipid A And Core Region of Bacterial Lipopolysaccharides - An UpdateHolst, OttoTrends in Carbohydrate Research
The FXYD membrane proteins constitute a family of conserved auxiliary subunits of the Na,K-ATPase, and have been the focus of recent attention due to their ability to finely regulate the activity of the enzyme complex in various physiological settings. In this review we describe the structures of...
A Mashaghi,M Swann,J Popplewell,M Textor,E Reimhult 摘要: Supramolecular conformation and molecular orientation was monitored during supported lipid bilayer (SLB) formation using dual polarization interferometry (DPI). DPI was shown to enable real time sensitive determination of birefringence of the ...
The peroxisomal very long chain fatty acid (VLCFA) transporter ABCD1 is central to fatty acid catabolism and lipid biosynthesis. Its dysfunction underlies toxic cytosolic accumulation of VLCFAs, progressive demyelination, and neurological impairments inc
It was observed that the lipid layer of the tear film on the naked eye as well as over the contact lens consists of two structures: the homogeneous structure and a structure exhibiting a micell-like one. The phenomenon is explained in terms of the specific properties of the different lipids...
form salt bonds with the 1′-phosphate group of LPS, while K40 of LptG and K317 of LptF form salt bonds with the 4′-phosphate group of LPS. D37 of LptG interacts with the glucosamine disaccharide of lipid A. K322, R263 and Q248 of LptF and K41 of LptG interact with the ...
To illustrate the relationship between the structures of these peptide and their actions at microscopic level, we present systematic coarse-grained dissipative particle dynamics simulations of eight types of antimicrobial peptides with different secondary structures interacting with a lipid bilayer membrane. ...
Multiple independent origins of Shigella clones of Escherichia coli and convergent evolution of many of their characteristics Bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) typically consist of a hydrophobic domain known as lipid A (or endotoxin), a nonrepeating "core" oligosaccharide, and a distal polysaccharide (...
Lipid A (also known as endotoxin) is the hydrophobic portion of lipopolysaccharides. It is an essential membrane component required for the viability of gram-negative bacteria. The enzymes involved in its biosynthesis are attractive targets for the devel
